How long do the ice packs last until the ice melts and become warm

It last about 25 minutes. It is actually stated that icing beyond 20 minutes generates no additional benefits, so this product is aptly designed.

It lasts a solid hour at least. I've left it out overnight rolled up and the center was still cold in the morning. It lasts a lot longer than most other ice packs I've used. It's a great value for the money

They last probably 30 min or so, not warm yet but maybe not cold enough to be effective. I try and use them for 20 min before throwing them back in the freezer.

We've only used them for 30 minutes at a time and they are still cold at that point.

I have fallen asleep with the ice pack next to me in bed and it is still cool 5 or 6 hours later. It is not cold enough to use at that point. I have never had an ice pack that was so terrific.

The wrap stays cold for 20 to 30+ minutes. It is usually so cold when I first put it on that I put on yoga pants so that I have a layer between my leg and the wrap.

They melt and get pumped back into ice tray for new ice. I bought this unit September 2013. Worked till December 2013. 4 months and stopped making ice.

I have only used it for cold items. With an ice pack it stays cold for about 6 hours.

packs won't go bad. A lot of doctors offices require them to be turned off at night. However it will take over an hour to get the packs heated properly

As long as the ice pack is in there, the milk stays freezing cold. I used to take it to work for 15+ hour days and my milk would be freezing when I got home.

No. I put in ice packs with my food. I unplug it when the car is not running and everything has stayed cold for at least 4 hours with it unpluged. The ice packs are still frozen and just a tiny bit soft.

Use an icepack...it will keep few hours. I am in the caribbean and while the ice melted, it kept the drinks cold enough for a extra hours. Please note the outside does get wet.

This is not one that you soak in water. The frozen gel will last a while depending on how hot it is outside and how hot your skin temp usually is. If it is very hot outside and you have a high skin temp normally I would say the packs will last about two hours or so frozen. You still get some cooling though through the liquid gel for a little bit. I would get an extra set and keep it in a cooler in your car or on your work site if possible. That is what we have done for my mom and it works great for her.

The ice cubes fall into the storage bin and they melt very little because all the ice cubes create a "cold" temperature in the bin. Once the bin becomes full the ice maker stops making ice until the bin is emptied. I have been gone longer than six hours and the cubes still very large with minimal melting. The ice maker has great insulation to keep the temperature as cold as possible.

It depends on how long the ice pack has been in the freezer before it is used. The ice pack had been in the freezer for two days when I used it the first time and after an hour it was still partially "frozen."

The ice pack stay cold for like 3 hours, but it is really good. Stays in the place and it is not aggressive cold.I recommend.

I sincerely doubt it. This product has been a huge dissappointment. I would estimate that this ice pack would stay frozen for 4-5 hours.

I would say about an hour although I wouldn't ice anything for that long consecutively. It freezes pretty quickly also. We love these and use them all the time.

I have only used for cold items. I use 3 small ice packs and stuff is still cold after 10 hrs.

They will get cold but will not start to freeze. It also depends on your cooler. Usually mine lasts for an hour but I have multiple sclerosis and put off alot of heat. If it's hot outside they will melt alot faster too. Your best way would be to freeze all that you have, and put them in the cooler and use them as needed.
